Could anyone suggest a world that could replace "chance" in the sentence "The chance for personal growth.." other than opportunity?
I think chance makes it sound like i am very unsure what i will gain from my gap year!
Thanks in advance

@elb,
the whole 'personal growth' phrasing is over-used. change the format of the sentence around entirely

throw challenge in there somewhere - there's nothing wrong with letting them know you recognize that you could be up against something tough

@ehBeth,
I agree, but this section on my gap year is only a small part of my statement and im already pushed for time...and word count! I chose personal growth ect over the 'life experience i will gain.." ect. Struggling to find something original to say about a gap year!
